INTRODUCTION

The PowerRinse® Waste Collection System is a food and food-related waste handling solution that improves kitchen efficiency by increasing scrapping speed and reducing bulk waste.
A series of nozzles along a trough aid in the pre-rinse and scrapping of dishes. Water flow down the trough moves waste into a scrap basket, which can then be emptied into a waste or compost receptacle, while water-soluble waste is sent down the drain. The trough system increases efficiency by allowing multiple users to scrap and pre-soak dishes at the same time. The PowerRinse Waste Collection System is an alternative to using a food waste disposer or pulper system.
This Installation, Care and Use Manual is for the Trough (Model PRT) only (see Figure 1). For the Standard (Model PRS) and Pot/Pan (Model PRP), please reference separate documents.
The PowerRinse Waste Collection System is CUL® US Listed when installed in conjunction with InSinkErator pumps and controls, and per the installation instructions in this Installation, Care, and Use Manual (see Figures 3 and 4 for typical installations).

This Installation, Care, and Use Manual covers the models listed in Table 1.

TABLE CUTOUT DIMENSIONS
Use the dimensions from Figure 6 for the Trough (Model PRT) table cutout. Weld the waste collector tray to the underside of the table so the opening aligns with the trough in the table.

If using in line with a dishwasher, it is recommended to mount the waste collector tray a minimum of 24″ away from the loading end of the dishwasher to allow enough table space for a dish rack.

ASSEMBLY

• Remove the unit from the package. Ensure that the power supply is appropriate based on the control configuration ordered with the unit. Verify using the spec plate on the tank.

Ensure that the control is on the proper side of the tank.
The control should always face the operator.
NOTE: The waste collector base assembly is shipped with the control factory installed on the left side of the tank.
CHANGING THE CONTROL LOCATION

Optional – to relocate the control, remove and save four (4) bolts and nuts. Reposition the box on the other side of the tank and secure it with previously removed hardware. It is not necessary to disconnect factory- installed wiring.
After relocating control, verify conduit and solenoid connections are tight.

• Secure waste collector base assembly to trough tray using provided lock washers and 1/4″-20 nuts.

• Rotate legs clockwise when viewing from the top until they extend to the floor.

• Optional – use the provided holes on the flanged foot to secure the unit to the floor with anchors (not provided by InSinkErator).

INTERNAL PLUMBING INSTRUCTIONS

• Install diffuser at end of trough.

• Optional – Install trough nozzle(s) at a 45 degree angle as shown.

Plumb 1-1/2″ pipe from pump outlet to diffuser opening (re-circulated pipe). A ball valve should be installed near diffuser to regulate water flow.
NOTE: If installing trough nozzles, use reducing tees to plumb 3/4″ pipe from the 1-1/2″ re-circulated pipe to nozzle(s). A ball valve should be installed near each nozzle(s).

PLUMBING

NOTICE

• Installation must comply with all local plumbing codes.
• If water pressure exceeds the recommended 80 psi, pressure regulators should be used.

WATER CONNECTIONS
Plumb a hot and a cold water supply line to mixer valve (see Figure 8). Connections are 1/2″ NPT.

IMPORTANT NOTES

• Mixing valve can be relocated.
• Hot and cold water lines must match the markings on mixer valve. If lines are reversed, mixer valve will not operate properly after adjustment.
• It is recommended that ball type shutoff valves be installed in line with the cold and hot water lines.
• A minimum of 30 psi at the mixer valve is needed for the waste collector to operate correctly.

IMPORTANT NOTE: This air gap meets ASME A112.1.2-2012 standard and eliminates the need for a vacuum breaker installed with the system (see Figure 9).

ADJUSTING WATER TEMPERATURE
NOTE: It may be necessary to adjust the mixing valve to set the appropriate water temperature.

To adjust water temperature (see Figure 10):

1. Unscrew button head screw on the valve cap until cap can be pulled out.
